10 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About 2019

8. Super Show-Down's Headliner

When both men were in their respective primes, The Undertaker and Goldberg were bad ass. Had this match been booked in 1998, the entire wrestling world would've lost its sh*t. It wasn't though. Instead, WWE waited until 2019 to book the match, and the reality popped a bubble blown by decades of fan fantasy.

In the white hot heat of Saudi Arabia, 'Super Show-Down' was a colossal let down.

'Taker and Goldberg couldn't live up to the billing. The first few minutes were fun, then it all went downhill when Goldberg was knocked loopy and The Undertaker struggled to keep a lid on things. The headliner was every bit as disappointing as seeing Arnie and Stallone dress up for battle as The Terminator and Rocky would be now.

WWE rescued their reputations by way of a tag match for 'Taker at Extreme Rules and a SummerSlam squash over Dolph Ziggler for Bill. Still, it shouldn't be forgotten just how depressing a watch their June match was.
